"Excellent job. Cleaned up and landscaping put back after. Could hardly tell that they had just dug up part of the front yard. No problems since then. Now can use the porch as we don’t have anymore problems with flooding."

"Austin Wells & Peter Dang were professional, informative and very hard working. Their attention to detail was fantastic! There was a wait to get the work done as there are not many companies in our area that can provide this service. The foundation is raised and we no longer have a gap that was creating moisture."

"I live in a house that is over 100 years old with a stone foundation that also forms the basement walls. The old mortar between the stones had deteriorated over the years to the point that water would seep in in multiple places along the perimeter of the basement wall. This seepage basically occurred after every rain, and I always needed to move objects stored in the basement away from the perimeter for fear that they would be water damaged. I actually wasn’t very confident that the seepage problem could be fixed, but I finally decided to contact several basement contractors to determine if there was anyway to waterproof the basement. I ultimately decided to hire Basement Gurus because Mike (initial company contact) sold me on the idea and that their workers were the best in the business. Well, it’s been seven weeks since the basement work was completed, and even though we’ve had a couple of nor’easters with heavy rain blow through the area, the basement has been bone dry; the basement work has been a resounding success! I take my hat off to all the good folks at Basement Gurus, in particular Mark, Dylan, Lenny and the other members of the team that worked hard to waterproof my basement. In sum, I would highly recommend to other homeowners who may be experiencing similar basemen water seepage problems to consider Basement Gurus as their “go-to” company."

"They had to dig out a whole wall out of my basement to stop the leaking. They cleaned the basement wall and they resealed it with the latest technology. They were very friendly and cooperative. They worked hard, and came when they said they would. Everything you would hope a contractor would do that did."

"We had a minor flooding incident in our basement caused by heavy rain.  I called MJ the next morning and John came out later that day.  Based on his assessment we elected to move forward with carpet and water removal immediately, which started later that night.  The two guys who came to do the work, Chris and Raymond, were exceptional!  They worked steadily until just after midnight to complete the initial cleanup job, including moving a lot of our stuff around the basement to facilitate their work.
The guys came back a few days later to remove any wall material that had been damaged.  After
inspecting the walls, we decided that no water had reached the drywall and it didn?t need to be removed/replaced.  This saved a lot of work, allowing me to begin the flooring replacement project much sooner.
We opted to have a French drain system installed to mitigate future risk as well.  It was a little challenging to schedule this project, but the guys completed that job in under a day as well.  They also inspected the walls and foundation, and made a few repairs where needed.
Melissa was a joy to work with throughout the process, always quick with an email or text reply to keep us informed about the
scheduling progress.  The overall cost was below what I expected to pay for such an extensive project and the service
was top-notch at every turn.
I hope the measures we now have in place will prevent a reoccurrence, but would definitely call MJ again to handle this kind of
flooding recovery.  They were fast, efficient, thorough, and cost effective.  Thanks for the great work!"

FAQs for concrete foundation raise projects in Ridgely, MD

On average, it takes two to seven days to physically raise your house. However, this does not include the preparation work, which is often the most lengthy process. The entire project, including preparation, obtaining permits, disconnecting utilities, and any subsequent landscaping, can take four to eight weeks. This timeline ensures everything is done safely and that your home remains structurally sound.

If proper safety protocols are not followed, raising a house can cause severe damage, as the process involves applying controlled force to the home's structure. The risks involved make it crucial to hire a skilled contractor who uses engineered methods to secure your home and prevent any harm to your household.

If your foundation shows signs of instability after raising your home, you might need to add structural support. A structural engineer can assess your foundation and recommend reinforcements to ensure your house stays stable and safe for the long term. Available support options include installing additional piers or pilings, reinforcing existing footings, or using steel beams to distribute the load more evenly.

You will need a structural engineer to assess your home before you begin. These professionals determine whether your house is suitable for lifting and identify any issues that could compromise its stability. Their expertise ensures that the project is designed correctly and all risks are managed to achieve a successful lift.
